What others are saying about participating in the Sigma Xi Student Research Conference.

An amazing experience- personally and professionally.
I learned a lot about networking, presenting research
and got to explore a completely new city.
I even got a gold ribbon!

The conference was an amazing opportunity for
networking with recruiters and other student researchers.

Student Participant

I especially appreciated the chance to meet
excellent student researchers from outside my discipline.

Student Participant

I loved that fact that people were genuinely
interested in my research. The interaction with other
student researchers was the best part as they will be
my future colleagues, competitors, and collaborators.

Student Participant

It was a very rewarding experience, and I learned
a lot that can be applied to future presentations

Student Participant

This was an awesome conference. I met a lot of great
people and even came away with a fancy ribbon.

I had a wonderful time at the Conference. I met
researchers from a variety of fields in addition to my
own and have been in contact with them since the conference.
I was glad to have an opportunity to present my research to
a wide audience and found the entire experience to be very
beneficial to my development as a scientist.
